If you have third party extended health insurance from your employer, you can contact the HR department to confirm coverage for psychotherapy. We will provide you with a receipt that you can submit to your insurer for reimbursement.
Should you not have coverage, or your benefits have been exhausted, you can claim the cost for psychotherapy on your income tax return. Registered Psychotherapists are recognised as authorised medical practitioners in Ontario, which means that the Canada Revenue Agency considers psychotherapy a deductible expense.
